Over the years, countless civilizations have prospered upon the surface of Relicia but there are few who have earned a level of notoriety to rival that, ofthe Empire Britana. Long before the humans mysteriously emerged from the forests, their path was laid out before them by greater powers. Even in the beginnings of nothingness, as the earth cracked violently for the first time and the trees began to whisper to one another, the human threat lingered ominously in the darkness. The Vaettir appeared first, they were the watchers of the world but they became blinded by their own arrogance and self-importance. They have graced Relicia with their presence since the dawn of time itself and they alone hold the keys to its darkest secrets. A race that is as ancient and as powerful as the Vaettir should have realized the importance of Unglandan from the beginning. The abundance of Maaj that collected and festered in the region was enough evidence alone but for some unknown reason, the island was completely overlooked. The Vaettir have always understood the power of the Maaj greater than any other creatures, but back then, there were none among them who possessed the wisdom to predict that the insignificant island of Unglandan was destined to birth the largest empire the world had ever seen.
The tiny island kingdom of Unglandan is the home of the humans of the Britanan Empire and is located in the north west of Relicia. It is the cornerstone of King Jorjes Empire and is surrounded on all sides by the restless, untameable oceans which have provided the humans with an effective barrier of protection from outsiders for many hundreds of years. It is impossible to navigate the tempestuous waves that batter the coasts of the north, the west and the east and as such there has been very little outside influence on the humans since the Gods abandoned Relicia so long ago. Following the Great Collapse the once great empire is a shadow of its former-self. The madness of King Jorje and his maaj has given new life to his subjects, whilst their mortal bodies are long dead their puppet husks live on.
The territory known as Eard is a huge region located in the south west of Relicia directly beneath Unglandan. It is the home of the Orcnar primarily but there are many other indigenous folks who dwell there in small numbers. Its southern coast is lined with a huge range of mountains that extend deep into Encartria in the east and help to further define the boundaries of the Orcnar from their troublesome Nuem neighbours. The landscape of Eard is largely unaltered by the Orcnar and there is a much greater emphasis placed on preserving the natural order of things present here than there is anywhere else in Relicia. Even so, there is still plenty of interesting architecture to be discovered in the region, even if it is sparse and far apart. Horribly affected by the Great Collapse, the Orcnar are astoundingly mutated with numerous variants noted to roam the land. A race in decline, they face the real possibility of extinction unless they can change their ill fate.
